Janice Shell...

Suggestion number one is valid and something that is long overdue. It is a convenience and perhaps, a discipline enforcer. We already have the ability to ignore a poster by not reading their posts, but how much more convenient would it be to not even see that they posted at all? By not seeing that the "ignored alias" had posted, it enforces a discipline to not respond, which is the one of the purposes of ignoring the person in the first place.

I view suggestion number two as nothing more than another convenience. It saves one from having to paste the same information to multiple PM's or from going outside SI to an email system.

Though reluctantly, I must agree that point number three is something that I hope never comes about. The ability to speak freely, within certain limitations, is fundamental to any truly open discussion and is a value that most of us hold dear, I dare say.

However, just as fundamental a right is the right to walk away from any discussion I so desire.

Lazarus, thinking Janice calls it "Raving Bullies" because she knows she will be mostly ignored...
